hello. At my shop we are a collection site for recycling old electronics nobody wants anymore. I get paid per ton and also some people get rid of really valuable things that take 2 seconds to fix so it's basically a dumpster diver's dream. Not everything makes it into the sea container by the end of the day and a lot of people drop poo poo off after hours when noone's here. Once they drop it off it becomes our property. Theft is inevitable but recently it's becoming more of a problem because folks are really obviously taking/destroying a lot of poo poo. there's 1 guy in particular who visits frequently when he knows nobody is around. we've got a camera pointed at that general area but it's not good enough to pick up many details and at night the IR isn't strong enough to see what's going on very well. we didn't have it set up to record because we were only using it to watch the parking lot during the day but now it records on motion. i plan on calling the cops once i have more information to provide and i'm looking into ways to get power and another ip camera out there but i also want to gently caress with this guy. i was thinking of like taking a nice looking TV, gutting it, and putting in a piezo alarm and a battery. when the TV gets plugged in the alarm gets triggered and doesn't turn off until the battery dies or the TV is taken apart and the thing disconnected. what are some other fun ways for petty passive aggressive revenge that don't involve setting fire to this person's house? if this content fails i can also talk about the neat things we've gotten from recycling like the japanese slot machine or the blow dart gun we hooked up to the air compressor. thank's

Man there is so much potential here but im so old now that all i can think of is "if this is a legitimate business, hire a security guard to call the cops for you"

Set up a card table with a Bologna sandwich buffet and get a bunch of "Will Work For Food" hobos as a security team to protect your valuable garbage.

do the TV thing but hide a pitfall in front of the TV so that he'll be conveniently stuck when the cops arrive

I'm just spit balling here: - Put poo poo on the carry handles of a TV or other high end electronic - Buy a motion activated flood light - A series of trapdoors - A sign explaining that theft will be prosecuted - Shoot him dead - Follow the perp, observe his habits, and assimilate into his life. Gaslight him into thinking there is nothing worth taking and his efforts have been a waste of time (this could get tricky) On the real though: leave a note explaining it is theft or whatever and that you prefer he stop. This dude may assume he is just garden variety dumpster diving, which albeit illegal in most places is not a "malicious criminal" act.

Have you tried a motion-activated flood light pointed at the donation area? If that doesn't work, hollow out an old cellphone and fill it with poo so when you press the buttons the poo comes out

Set up a few of these cruelty free hobo retainers. Then in the morning you can release him back into the ocean.

We do have signs saying taking stuff is theft and a bunch of other rules for recycling but a lot of people ignore them or cannot read. like we're not supposed to take microwaves and we have really clear signs saying so but nobody's around who's gonna stop you? A few times people have been dumb enough to put them in the box with their shipping label still on so it's fun to approach them about it. One of our neighbours caught a thief rummaging through stuff a while ago and when approached he convinced them he got permission lol.

Good luck with the cops OP. Theft is a crime they will tell you they can do literally nothing about ever and they will not help you in any way so lol.

get one of those cheap two way IP cameras and a bright rear end motion floodlight. Open the camera and find where the speaker is, run those wires into an amp/speaker setup of your choosing. Now when it trips you will get a phone notification (or whatever you setup) and when you see a little person blob running start screaming into the mic. edit: I cant stress enough how important it is to get a really over the top PA system hooked up. like go on alibaba and get some 22" outdoor PA speakers f alternatively get a soundboard to play really angry chinese screaming propaganda you can probably make the started reactions into a successful youtube channel 1gnoirents fucked around with this message at 16:42 on Apr 25, 2018 |
